Despite its dominance in North America, Oppenheimer beats Barbie at the box office in one specific country despite creating controversy in it.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Despite its controversy, Oppenheimer beats Barbie in one specific country. It was a massive weekend for cinema thanks to the release of two of the most anticipated movies of the year.
Although Barbie is dominating Nolan's Oppenheimer at the North American box office, things are different in India. Per Variety, Nolan's epic's opening weekend earnings top its biggest competitor, grossing $7 million. Gerwig's smash hit starring Margot Robbie, on the other hand, is projected to gain $2.2 million for Warner Bros. in the country.
Why Oppenheimer Is Bigger Than Barbie In India It's an understatement to say that Oppenheimer and Barbie are very different movies. One would assume that there would be a stark divide between viewers of the films, but instead of intense competition, people have embraced both movies. Discourse about this double-header has been met with moviegoers either praising them or openly expressing their interest in seeing both.
Given this, India's reversed box office results are curious. As previously mentioned, the controversy surrounding the Oppenheimer sex scene makes this feat for Oppenheimer much more impressive. That said, it's also possible that it propelled conversations about the movie leading to its release, piquing the interest of many Indians, and resulting in the film's opening weekend performance.
Overall, the success of both Barbie and Oppenheimer is great for the still-recovering movie industry around the globe. Their releases also come at a pivotal point where streaming has become many's go-to when it comes to consuming their visual form of entertainment. Finally, they are also proof that the audiences will turn out if studios come out with high-quality films.
